Re: [dev] st: enlarge font

Hi,

config.def.h says:
static char *font = "Liberation Mono:pixelsize=12:antialias=true:autohint=true";

st -f "Liberation Mono":pixelsize=16 is my desired size.

I will create a config.h with:
static char *font = "Liberation Mono:pixelsize=16:antialias=true:autohint=true";

And compile with it, is that the correct way to do it?

[dev] st: enlarge font

[Nuno Teixeira]

Hello all,

Recently I bought a new laptop that runs at:
[   144.414] (II) NVIDIA(0): Virtual screen size determined to be 1920 x 1080

st font size is too small and I use Ctrl-Shift-Page Up 3 times to get
desired font size.

How do I tell st to use my desired font size instead of using
Ctrl-Shift-Page Up?
I will need a command to find font geometry and then start st with -g
geometry, I think.

Thanks,
Nuno Teixeira
